The one who spoke was a middle-aged Xiongnu man. Although he was slightly chubby compared to the guards beside him, and his skin was much lighter, it did not affect his valiant image. Just by looking at his height of over eighty zhang and the giant blade in his hand, one could tell that he was not someone to be trifled with!
One had to admit that the Xiongnu people were indeed very valiant. Beside the middle-aged Xiongnu man, there were several guards who were topless! It was nearing the end of the year, and the weather was extremely cold, especially in the northern lands where the Xiongnu lived. Furthermore, it was night time!
These Xiongnu guards were extremely eye-catching in their shirtless state. It was unknown whether they were trying to display their valiance or if they hadn't had the time to put on their cotton-padded clothes due to Yang Rui's ambush …
"Qiu Linzhi is willing to take the head of the bandit leader for the Great Tang!"
Generous rewards would definitely attract brave men. With the encouragement of the middle-aged Xiongnu leader, one of the guards immediately stepped forward and prepared to exchange blows with Yang Rui.
"This person has the strength of a high-level general. With Zhang Ning and Yu's help, Blazing Sun will not lose to this person! However, we must pay attention to the other party's leader. Even if that person is weaker than Gao Shun, he should be able to exchange a few blows with him! The rest are at most mid-level generals, so there is no need to fear them … "
When the Xiongnu people came forward to challenge them, Cheng Yu immediately reminded them softly. Yang Rui already had a clear understanding of Cheng Yu's abilities, so he trusted Cheng Yu's words. With Cheng Yu's reminder, Yang Rui also had a rough grasp of the strength of this group of Xiongnu.
"Hmph! Mere Hu barbarians, and you dare to imitate me in a duel? Everyone, there is no need to be so formal, just follow me and charge! Kill! "
Even though some of the Xiongnu people had stepped forward to challenge them, Wang Chong did not hesitate. However, Yang Rui didn't let the other party get what he wanted. Instead, he waved his hand and led everyone in a charge. Given the strength of the people around Yang Rui, there was indeed no need to be particular about the other party. Yang Rui also wanted to take down the other party as soon as possible so that he could gather his cavalry and soldiers.
Under normal circumstances, Yang Rui would really like to exchange a few blows with the other party. After he had been promoted to a High-Grade General, he had only exchanged a few blows with the terracotta soldiers in the Terracotta Soldier instance dungeon. After that, he had not exchanged blows with anyone else. After all, there were many differences between Terracotta Soldiers and NPCs or player Generals.
Ever since Yang Rui had been promoted to a high-level martial general, he had used the Soul Gathering Pill and the Mortal Transformation Pill respectively. Although the effects were not as obvious as when he was an intermediate martial general, the growth of his inner strength had also decreased by a lot. However, after taking the pills twice, Yang Rui's Intermediate Inner Force Mental Cultivation Method had already broken through to Level 1 90%. His Inner Force had also increased by a lot, and he felt that his strength had increased by a lot. The only thing he hadn't found was a suitable Advanced Skill Book.
"Kill!"
"Kill …"
“.....”
Under Yang Rui's command, the 80 Basic Generals, Gao Shun, and Yang Rui all charged towards the other party. Under Yang Rui's signal, only Cheng Yu and Zhang Ning remained where they were. They were responsible for casting their ultimate support skills and assisting everyone in battle.
At this moment, the difference in strength between everyone was obvious. Yang Rui had originally gone straight for the Xiongnu High-Grade General, Qiu Linzhi, who had stepped forward to challenge him. However, Gao Shun had taken the initiative and knocked the Xiongnu off his horse. Then, without stopping to rest, he went straight for the other party's leader.
When Qiu Linzhi had come out to challenge him, he had called the leader "Great Danghu". According to Yang Rui's understanding, the position of "Great Danghu" should be quite a high position among the Xiongnu. Only those with a different surname could hold this position! Cheng Yu had pointed out that the strength of the Great Danghu could actually exchange a few blows with Gao Shun. It just so happened that it was more suitable for Gao Shun to fight him. At the same time, Yang Rui didn't dare to underestimate the other party's strength. Following closely behind Gao Shun, he pounced on one of the guards beside the Great Danghu.
Although Cheng Yu had said that there were still mid-grade Generals among the Xiongnu, Yang Rui didn't have the relevant skills to check their strength. He could only judge their strength based on their performance in battle.
As a result, the two mid-level generals were able to take advantage of the situation. One of them even managed to injure two of Yang Rui's primary level generals, which was why Yang Rui decided to target him. Fortunately, with the assistance of Cheng Yu and Zhang Ning's consummate skills, the two Basic Generals weren't seriously injured. They retreated to Zhang Ning's side to recover.
At this moment, Zhang Ning's consummate skill had been switched from "Tranquility" to "Recuperation". In a battle of similar strength, using the consummate skill "Recuperation" could effectively increase one's endurance in battle. Moreover, there was still Cheng Yu by her side who could raise the attack, defense, and other stats of their own people!
Apart from the first two Basic Generals suffering some injuries, the Xiongnu that Yang Rui and the rest of the Basic Generals faced didn't cause any more waves. After Yang Rui had stabilized the situation, he went all out and cleaned up quite a few of them. In comparison, the battle between Gao Shun and that "Great Danghu" was much more exciting and intense!
Gao Shun's "Tenacious Battle" consummate skill was a mediocre skill. Its explosive power wasn't considered high among consummate skills, and its specialty lay in the length of the battle. Therefore, Gao Shun was considered to be a long-lasting general who grew braver the more he fought.
And based on what Yang Rui had observed during the battle, the Xiongnu Great Danghu was a general with explosive power. From time to time, he would be able to wield the giant blade in his hand as smoothly as flowing water. After exchanging more than ten blows with Gao Shun, he was still able to withstand the explosive power. He could be considered to be a very powerful character!
"Hah!"
The Xiongnu Great Danghu looked like he was about to unleash another big move. The giant blade slashed across the back of his head at a 270-degree angle. Every time this happened, the Great Danghu would use his strongest consummate skill. After a few rounds of fighting, this characteristic was very obvious.
In comparison, Gao Shun was a lot quieter. From the very beginning, he had never been seen shouting or yelling. He had only unleashed his spear as he moved, countering each move as it came. He fought very steadily.
Judging from Gao Shun's fighting style, Yang Rui felt much more at ease. This was because at the beginning, Yang Rui had not been able to tell the pattern of Gao Shun's spear technique from his attribute list. Now, it seemed that the pattern should be included in the consummate skill!
When the Xiongnu Great Danghu unleashed his consummate skill, although it was very ferocious, Gao Shun didn't spend much effort and easily neutralized it. The Great Danghu seemed to have expected this situation. After unleashing his big move, he didn't expect any results and didn't continue to unleash his follow-up moves. Instead, he retreated abruptly and whipped his horse, wanting to leave in a flash …
But it turned out that the Great Danghu had merely feinted, wanting to take the opportunity to escape! The Xiongnu Great Danghu's steed was definitely a good steed. Earlier, when they had escaped from the central tent, he had taken the lead and left the people around him far behind. If he had wanted to escape by himself back then, he would have been able to do so long ago.
However, at that time, the Great Danghu must have been feeling indignant. Therefore, he had been gathering stragglers along the way, wanting to launch a counterattack at an appropriate time. This was why the situation earlier had occurred. However, what the Great Danghu hadn't expected was that the enemy chasing after him was much stronger than he had imagined. Seeing that the generals and soldiers around him were gradually falling off their horses and that he was definitely not a match for Gao Shun, he could only choose to escape once again.
However, how could it be so easy? Gao Shun was clearly prepared for this. Just as the Great Danghu was about to turn and escape, Gao Shun took advantage of the moment when the other party made his move and turned around to thrust out his spear. He immediately pierced the Great Danghu's left ribs from the side. Then, the end of the spear abruptly pressed down, lifting the Great Danghu onto the tip of the spear!
The Great Danghu's steed had been spurred on to gallop, but it suddenly lost the weight on its back and darted out at lightning speed. After running for a long distance, it trotted back. Clearly, it had discovered that its owner was no longer on its back!
'It's a good steed indeed!' Yang Rui thought to himself when he saw this situation. In this chaotic battlefield, if it were an ordinary horse, it would probably have run as far away as it could after being frightened. Unexpectedly, the Great Danghu's steed had turned back on its own. This horse should have some intelligence!
"Ah!"
The Great Danghu was lifted up by Gao Shun's spear and then fell to the ground in a daze. The giant blade in his hand had also been flung far away. When the several beginner level generals around him saw this, they went up together and tied the Great Danghu up, tying him up like a dumpling!
"System notification: The Great Danghu of the Xiongnu Qiu Lin Tribe, Qiu Lin Feng, has been captured. The Xiongnu of the Qiu Lin Tribe have been defeated and scattered. Players who participate in the punitive expedition within three game days are allowed to loot the Xiongnu of the Qiu Lin Tribe. All loot will belong to them …"
After the Great Danghu of the Qiu Lin Tribe was captured alive by Gao Shun, a system notification regarding the punitive expedition was immediately sent out. All the players who participated in the punitive expedition received this system notification, and all the players were very excited. Previously, it was these nomadic Xiongnu who went around harassing the borders of the Great Han Empire and looting the belongings of the Han people, causing the people to be unable to make a living. However, they didn't expect that the situation would be reversed and they could also freely loot the Xiongnu! Everyone felt that it was very satisfying!
At this moment, the leaders of the few large player factions naturally received this notification as well. However, they still didn't know who had captured the Great Danghu of the Xiongnu. Apart from Yang Rui, there was also the CU Alliance leading the cavalry. At this moment, they hadn't had time to meet up with the CU Alliance!
Not long after the leaders of the major player factions led their troops to the Hun Tribe's encampment, the system notification arrived. Naturally, the leaders immediately ordered their subordinates to join the ranks of the Hun Tribe's encampment.
However, the leaders didn't think so simply. From the moment Yang Rui and the CU Alliance attacked the Xiongnu camp to the moment they captured the Great Danghu of the Qiu Lin Tribe, it only took a little more than an hour. It could be said that it was very fast. Regarding this, the leaders of the six large player factions were naturally very surprised and suspicious!
However, they didn't know the strength of the Qiu Lin Tribe, nor did they know the individual battle strength of the Great Danghu of the Qiu Lin Tribe. Therefore, they were only suspicious for a moment and didn't think much about it. They subconsciously thought that the Qiu Lin Tribe's strength was definitely mediocre, which led to Yang Rui and the CU Alliance defeating them so quickly!
